We’re definitely sick!

The day has come.  One gets sick and sure enough the 2nd is soon to follow.   It will keep happening over and over I’m sure.

Of course we were at the dr last thurs and recognized the signs but it didn’t kick into full effect until a couple days ago.  Now we have coughs, sneezes, and runny noses.  It’s only a matter of time until we throw an ear ache or two in there along with whatever other disease it manifests into.

I tried robotussin for the cough and the bottle is now in the trash.  The amount of hyperactivity that resulted from just the smallest dose was way more than I could handle.  I’ll just deal with the coughing.  Never again will they get that before nap time.

And since when did medicines start to taste good.  Who’s idea was that?  Bubblegum flavored pepto???  Sure, it helps to get it down when it’s needed, but what about the desire for it when it isn’t?  I can vividly remember medicines that tasted so bad it made me gag.

I guess it’s time to schedule another dr appt.  If they aren’t any better today we’ll be there tomorrow 4 sure.

And then …

I still keep thinking … is this for real?  Is this all for real?  It’s all so UNREAL!

And then …

I knew it would happen.   I don’t know how many people told me they would do anything for me.  I also don’t know how many times I asked someone to do something and they couldn’t do it.  Why even bother saying that.  And of the who-knows-how-many-people I spoke to at some point or another, where are they now?  They have moved on. I’m back to our close group of friends and family.  I expected it.  Sure there are some others that are still around, but 95% have disappeared back into their own ‘world’
